Description

Everyone is talking about Long Range, aka: LoRa. This is a new wireless technology, meant for Long Range and yet low power. In some cases, the battery can last for years.

RFM LoRa Shield is an Arduino shield which integrates RFM95W LoRa module and based on Open Source Library with any Arduino projects. It is compatible with Arduino/Genuino/CT Uno, Arduino/Genuino Mega2560, Arduino Leonardo and possibly other pin compatible main boards.

Using LoRa modulation technique, RFM Lora Shield can achieve a sensitivity of over -148dBm using a low cost crystal and bill of materials. The high sensitivity combined with the integrated +20 dBm power amplifier yields industry leading link budget making it optimal for any application requiring range or robustness. LoRa also provides significant advantages in both blocking and selectivity over conventional modulation techniques, solving the traditional design compromise between range, interference immunity and energy consumption.

LoRa shield has stack-able side headers which allows more Arduino-compatible shields to be stacked on top of it. It also has built in grove sensors connectors which allows users to integrate grove-based sensors into their application. It has also provided option for user to integrate OLED with this shield for visual display.

* This is LoRa Radio shield, it does not contain LoRaWAN protocol, so the Arduino main board will require more program to store the LoRaWAN stack. Features:
